Red Spongy Coral Heart

I know this will not be a favorite for many because of many reasons....one maybe because it is so busy? But as Natasha put it, "It is a nice kind of busy....sometimes busy looks nice". I like it...it looks warm and friendly, and looks like it is smiling :-).




Another wire prong setting: Citrine

This is my 4th attempt at prong setting with wire:

Prong setting with wire

I've been dying to do these....prong setting with wire. Solderless...simply wire. And so today in two attempts I reached a somewhat reasonable piece. Its made with genuine Mystic Topaz and Brass wire. Thanks Metallique! :-) Great tutorials!!

New Wire Sculpted Pendants

These are some wire sculpted pendants I've made over the last few days...techniques learnt from Metallique and Preston Reuthor courses. All stones except one are genuine, and they are all set in 14K gold-filled wire.

This blue stone is Amazonite:


This is a Unakite:


I am not sure what stone this is...I think it is Jade. Any ideas?

This is Fluorite:





This is an Agate cameo...mum and baby:







This is actually an Amethyst colored man made stone (the only man-made stone in this section; the rest of the stones are genuine). But when I took a picture, the picture looks blue:



This is a Peridot:

This is a Pink Topaz:



There are 2 Citrines and a string of fresh water pearls:



Two Pink Topaz here, but the bigger one is not the finest quality...the edges are not pink. Maybe the heat treatment wasn't done well?

3 Wire Sculpted semi-precious stones pendants

Here are 3 wire sculpted pendants I have done. These are all semi-precious cabochons. I am sure only about the Aventurine. The black one is either Black Onyx or Black Jasper or Black Agate. And the last one looks like Unakite to me. They are all wrapped in 14K gold-filled wire.
